Diandra Little Dog, MD

 I grew up in San Diego, CA and my education has taken me all over the country from San Diego to Virginia to Minnesota where I graduated from the University of Minnesota Medical School. I chose Family Medicine because I want to be able to establish long-lasting and trusting relationships with my patients while providing care across different areas of primary care. My specific interests include Public Health, addiction medicine, women’s health, and gender affirming care. I am excited to be doing residency at the University of New Mexico because it was one of the few programs in the country in an area with a significant Native population that offers everything I wanted in a Family Medicine program. I am also looking forward to exploring the Albuquerque area, learning more about the local Native cultures, and trying as much of the local cuisine as possible. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my horse, going to new restaurants and museums with my fiancé, and watching football.
